Differences in the experience, expression, and control of anger were evaluated for young-adult drug addicts and a control group (matched in age, residence, and education) of nondrug users from Southern Italy. The Italian adaptation of Spielberger's State- Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) was administered with standard instructions to both groups. Drug abusers had significantly higher scores on the STAXI State and Trait scales, the Trait-Angry Temperament and Reaction sub-scales, and the Anger-Out and Total Anger Expression scales, and significantly lower scores on Anger-Control. These findings indicate that the drug abusers experienced anger more often than the nonusers, were more likely to express anger toward other persons or objects in the environment, and had less control of their angry feelings.
对来自意大利南部的年轻成年吸毒者和一个非吸毒者对照组(在年龄、居住地点和教育程度上相匹配)的愤怒体验、表达和控制差异进行了评估。对两组均按照标准说明施测了斯皮尔伯格状态-特质愤怒表达量表(STAXI)的意大利语改编版。吸毒者在STAXI状态和特质量表、特质愤怒气质和反应子量表、愤怒表达和总愤怒表达量表上的得分显著更高,而在愤怒控制量表上的得分显著更低。这些发现表明,吸毒者比非吸毒者更频繁地体验到愤怒,更有可能对环境中的其他人或物体表达愤怒,并且对自己的愤怒情绪控制较少。
